Ross Ulbricht's Family Is Exhibiting His Prison Art to Fundraise for His Appeal

• motherboard.vice.com

Ulbricht's family relaunched the website for his defense fund on Tuesday, adding a gamified donation page created with the Silk Road creator's own art and a never-before-seen home video (which has since been set to private without explanation) in efforts to raise more funds.

Supporters of the convicted Dread Pirate Roberts can donate through a "Free Ross" game that reveals a drawing Ulbricht created in prison of his view of the trial. For a $1 donation, supporters can reveal one square of the game at a time and leave pixelated messages for Ulbricht. Users have already written "Free Ross" and "Bitcoin" on the drawing. Players of the artwork game also have a chance to win a one gram gold bar if they chose one of 21 lucky squares.
